The nicest thing someone's ever done for meIn amongst all the tales of bitterness and poo, we occasionally get fluffy stories that bring a small tear to our internet-jaded eyes.
In celebration of this, what is the nicest thing someone's done for you? Whether you thoroughly deserved it or it came out of the blue, tell us of heartwarming, selfless acts by others.
Failing that, what nice things have you done for other people, whether they liked it or not?

Nah, my favourite was:How many squares on a chessboard?
I had this one in maths last day of term, year 9 or 10. The teacher thought it would fill our hour lesson as we'd finished the proper work.
It's not 64, as he wanted us to include the squares of 2x2 and 3x3, etc. He was very surprised when I gave him the answer after 5 minutes. He hadn't worked it out himself by that point.
Can anyone give me the right answer?
